I cannot say enough wonderful things about the exceptional care provided by everyone at Bridge Veterinary Hospital. It is clear that the entire staff genuinely loves animals and is dedicated to providing them with the very best care. Malia went above and beyond for my dog. She literally picked up my 64-pound dog and carried her into the exam room, and then carried her again to the treatment area. Malia looks like she weighs about 100 pounds soaking wet, so I was amazed not only by her strength, but even more by the compassion and genuine concern she showed for my dog. Dr. Koenigstein is incredibly thorough, knowledgeable, and caring. You can immediately tell how much she loves animals and truly enjoys what she does. She takes the time to make sure everything is addressed and that you feel comfortable with the care your pet is receiving. The front desk staff deserves recognition as well. They are always accommodating, helpful, and kind. I am truly grateful for everyone at Bridge Veterinary Hospital. The compassion, professionalism, and level of care they provide are exceptional. Knowing that my dog is being cared for by people who genuinely love animals means so much to me. I highly recommend them! read more

Our vet of 18 years retired... we had a 12 year old dog and two cats which were part of our family and we never thought we would find another Vet which could compare... but thankfully, Bridge Vet was referred to us and they exceeded all past experiences. They are just incredible people. Talented, caring, know how to run a business efficiently without it ever feeling like a business. They genuinely love every pet and, just having to had put our dog to sleep, they could not have been better on the care over the past few years and especially the past year with our dog. Tender with her and gave us all the options to help her have the best life and the most gentle passing. We were lucky enough to always have Jenna Koenigstein, DVM - can't say enough about her as a Vet and as a person. Thank you BVHVET read more

I have a nervous 7 year old shepherd mix, so when we relocated to Point Pleasant earlier this summer it was a top priority to establish care with a vet who was willing to be patient with him. He is also 90 lbs and his size can create a unique challenge. We've struggle in the past to find a vet who would build trust and work with him vs. rushing to full sedation. I was blown away by the care we received from Dr. Koenigstein. She prescribed a comfort pack for him to take in advance of his appointment, and was very gracious when he was too stubborn to enter the exam room. She spent a great deal of time with him to make him comfortable with her. She also let me stay with my dog during the entire visit, which I think went a long way in keeping him relaxed. As a team of three (the vet tech, Ashley, was amazing too!), we soothed my dog and kept him comfortable through the exam, vaccinations, and even a nail trim. I feel so fortunate to have found this place and would absolutely recommend it to all pet lovers in the local area! read more

i had to send my boy to the rainbow bridge this morning, the staff and doctor were so kind and compassionate, i believe they truly love every pet as if it were their own, thank you for making my puppies send off filled with so much love read more

I can't recommend this practice enough! What a friendly experience! Thank you so much for giving us peace of mind!!!

BVH has always been my families go to for standard veterinary care. Their staff has always been very attentive and kind towards my family. Recently, I rescued my own puppy. Although he is a sweet puppy, he takes a bit to warm up to new faces. BVH Doctors and technicians go above and beyond every time to be super gentle, super patient, and calm with my dog, making sure to find the best methods that fit him and make him feel comfortable; at his own pace. Their kindness and compassion towards nervous patients who need a little more TLC is something that I will always appreciate. Their staff always greets me and my pup with smiles when walk through the doors, and he loves to try to make his way behind the desk to reciprocate the attention. Bridge Veterinary Hospital is always willing to take care of my pup same day, even around my odd work hours. read more

I would rate them a zero but it's not offered as an option. We are very sad to say Dr. Carabba never examined our puppy Abby's mouth or gums during any of her well visits and this prevented us from detecting her jaw cancer until it was too late to treat. We spread out all her vaccines because we were concerned that multiple vaccines on a single visit could trigger seizures. She was in perfect health to the best of our knowledge but we went above and beyond to ensure her safety. Dr. Carabba had multiple opportunities to examine her mouth but never did. He was personable and we trusted him to do what needed to be done to keep Abby in good health. We discussed spaying and we explained we wanted to wait until after her second heat to consider it because we were informed by her breeder that spaying too early could trigger cancer. We didn't realize checking her teeth and gums should have been done as a regular part of well visits. On Monday 12/11/23, we brought Abby to see Dr. Carabba because we thought she had a dental infection because her gum was swollen and bleeding. I was also concerned her back paw on the opposite side of her body seemed spastic and she was limping on it. I wondered if her infection had gotten into her bloodstream. He prescribed an antibiotic and anti inflammatory. He chuckled and said she was limping on her back leg "maybe just because she was feeling sick." That made no sense to me. Was he implying that she was being dramatic and looking for attention? He said she should be better in ten days. If not, we could call him back. He did surprise us by saying the lymph node on the side of her neck where the dental swelling was seemed to be the size of a golf ball. As we left, he took a picture of Abby's mouth to share with Dr. Briggs, another veterinarian in the practice. I called back the next day to say I was concerned about Abby's pain and struggle to eat even with the medication he prescribed. He said he shared the picture of Abby's gum with Dr. Briggs and that they would try to get Abby in for surgery that week to "debulk" her gum. I was shocked and asked if it was cancer or something serious? He said he didn't know. I told him I was confused because on Monday he said she'd be fine in ten days and on Tuesday he said she needed surgery. I went to another vet for a second opinion and they recommended I go to Red Bank Veterinary Hospital immediately because of the seriousness of Abby's condition. After doing a cat scan and biopsy at Red Bank Veterinary Hospital, their board certified veterinary dental surgeon said Abby's cancer had spread throughout her whole body and couldn't be treated with surgery or radiation. He was sad to tell me the news and I was shocked and devastated to hear it. Abby agonized in pain until Sunday 12/17/23 when we had to put her to sleep due to her suffering. It tore my heart apart to put our angel to sleep at 15 mos of age. It was a preventable tragedy. I share our heartbreaking story to prevent this from happening to another beautiful puppy. I would sincerely recommend avoiding this practice. read more

Called them at 5pm and they got me and my sick puppy in the same day, and we weren't even their patients! Everyone from the girl who took my call to the woman who checked us out were friendly and completely professional and understanding. Dr. Crawford was friendly and knowledgeable and everyone really set my mind at ease (I may have been freaking out over my sick dog). This will be my regular vet from now on! Highly recommend. read more

This is another example of corporations running these Veterinary facilities. I have been bringing 8 animals to this place for several years and paid for a wellness panel $209, in addition to the visit and medications and they asked for the samples back in 2 weeks or I would get a $20 charge. Well, one of the dogs had to be put down at the Emergency Vet and I missed the 14 day window. I was told I had to be over $100 for lab costs, even though I paid for the costs at the well visit. The office manager Nicole insisted that is the policy and I understood this....even though I was told something different. I explained how they are making a profit on me not making the 14 day window and she replied that is the policy. The thousands I have spent there and they tried to stick me for more. Moving on. Also, at my deceased dogs last visit there I was told "the mass in his mouth got bigger", however we were never informed he had a mass in the 4 visits prior. This is what happens when you have a different vet each time. Also, if you have an urgent matter during business hours, it's an additional $50. No consistency, no compassion but they will take your money. read more

hidden fees and staff lied about cost of follow up. Naturally they denied it. Over priced even for a vets office. Too easy to get an appointment, should of known better and went somewhere else. read more

I had a wonderful experience there. Very caring Drs and staff. Was able to get my pet on same day

Our golden retriever got some type of splinter or thorn in his side. Not being from the area full time - I call at least 5 or 6 other vets. Bridge Veterinary Hospital was the ONLY one to give us an appointment. The staff was extremely compassionate, caring and we were 100% satisfied. They even waved the examination fee! They are now our full time vet when we are in the area!! I HIGHLY recommend to anyone!! read more
